Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Soobee38 Lovely quiet hotel with great concierge services
We stayed from 21/2/15 for three nights. The hotel looks lovely inside, clean & modern yet in keeping with the hotels vintage glamour.
The room we had was an Executive on the third floor. It was spacious, comfortable & well laid out, with a small sitting area.
The bed was large & comfortable with great linens, which gave a great night's sleep.
The bathroom was a good size & we had a bath & separate shower cubicle & separate toilet. The hair dryer was brilliant, very powerful.
The hotel itself was very quiet, even though we were told it was full. Quietly closing doors to the rooms & sumptuous carpets in the halls ensured we didn't hear other guests.
The hotel is in a good position, the train station & the São Bento Metro station, just around the corner from the hotel.
We didn't use the restaurant, but the bar was comfortable & staff helpful.
The Concierge service was fabulous- very helpful, knowledgeable & gave great advice. We used them on several occasions, which included two restaurant suggestions, which were perfect for our requirements. Do not hesitate to use them. Other customer facing staff were good. We really enjoyed our stay & wouldn't hesitate coming again or recommending to friends.
